Herts Sports Partnership funding opportunities

The £1.4m fund for Hatfield Sports Clubs and organisations will be launched on 13 October from 6pm with an event at the University of Hertfordshire.

John O’Callaghan, Director of the Herts Sports Partnership who has been appointed Chair of the Fund said: “We are hosting an event to give Hatfield clubs and organisations the chance to talk to us and fully understand what we’re looking for from applications to this significant fund. This is one of the most exciting opportunities we’ve got as a community to make a lasting difference to local people through sport and exercise. We’re hopeful clubs will be able to use this money to secure additional funding from governing bodies like Sport England.”

The funding pot is a financial contribution from the University of Hertfordshire, replacing their original Section 106 planning obligation to provide replacement sports facilities at Angerland Common.
